entry description
The inspiration behind this image is the simplicity it reflects - its strength isn’t in what’s said about it but in what’s unsaid, in its silence and in its tonality making it timeless. The image represents the most unlikely of the objects to be photographed i.e. fishing nets that lie still in waters accentuating the simple beauty they reflect with long exposure techniques transferring mundane scene to extraordinary captured moments.about the photographer
My work plays on contrast to induce a surreal and minimalistic world that surrounds us with a large portion of negative space to get people to see the power of photography and what remains unseen in this world of digital saturation. The lack of color, the prominence of light reveals the acute synthesis of thought and image pursued by me. A minimal manipulation is used to strip the simplicity of the composition from external element obtained by combining balance, inspiration and construction of the image. My photography reflects interests in varied forms of art and its endless variations, subjects created in my own very mind by absorbing the landscape and leaving in it the image of what my own soul brings together while the absence of colors accentuates the expressive power of the image itself whose interpretation becomes a medium of subtle yet artistic expression of solitude.back to gallery
